 # SpecFact CLI
 
-> **SpecFact is the validation and alignment layer for software delivery.**
-> It adds the missing validation layer that keeps backlog intent, specifications, tests, and code
-> from drifting apart across AI-assisted coding, brownfield systems, and governed delivery.
-> Use it to move fast without losing rigor.
-
-**No API keys required. Works offline. Zero vendor lock-in.**
-
-SpecFact CLI does **not** include built-in AI. It is a deterministic local CLI
-that can be paired with IDE slash-command prompts so your chosen AI copilot can
-invoke SpecFact as part of a command chain.
+> Review AI-assisted code against your own contracts.
+> Catch drift before it reaches PR or main.

-
-## What is SpecFact?
-
-SpecFact is the validation and alignment layer for software delivery.
-
-It is a local CLI that helps you keep the intent behind a change aligned from
-backlog or idea through specifications, implementation, and checks. The “Swiss-knife CLI” metaphor
-fits because SpecFact gives you a set of focused tools for specific delivery problems, not a vague
-bag of features.
-
-In practice, SpecFact helps you:
-- add guardrails to AI-assisted and fast-moving greenfield work
-- reverse-engineer large brownfield codebases into trustworthy structured understanding
-- reduce the “I wanted X but got Y” drift between backlog, spec, and implementation
-- move from local rigor toward team and enterprise policy enforcement
-
-## Why does it exist?
-
-Modern delivery drifts in predictable ways:
-- AI-generated quick wins often lack the validation layer needed for mid- and long-term reliability
-- brownfield systems often have missing or drifted specs, so teams need to reverse-engineer reality
-- backlog intent gets reinterpreted into something else before it reaches code
-- teams working with different skill levels, opinions, and AI IDE setups need consistent review and
-  policy enforcement
-
-SpecFact exists to reduce that drift. It helps teams understand what is really there, express what
-should happen more accurately, and validate that the result still matches the original intent.
-
-## Why should I use it?
-
-Use SpecFact if you want one of these outcomes:
-- ship AI-assisted changes faster without accepting fragile “looks fine to me” quality
-- understand a legacy or unfamiliar codebase before changing it
-- hand brownfield insight into OpenSpec, Spec-Kit, or other spec-first workflows
-- keep backlog expectations, specifications, and implementation from silently diverging
-- enforce shared rules consistently across developers and CI/CD
-
-## What do I get?
-
-With SpecFact, you get:
-- a deterministic local CLI instead of another opaque SaaS dependency
-- a validation layer around fast-moving implementation work
-- codebase analysis and sidecar flows for brownfield understanding
-- stronger backlog/spec/code alignment for real delivery workflows
-- a path from individual rigor to organization-level policy enforcement

+  - examples/buggy_math.py:4          Public function divide is missing @require/@ensure decorators.
 
-# Validate external code without modifying the target repo
-specfact code validate sidecar init my-project /path/to/repo
-specfact code validate sidecar run my-project /path/to/repo
+Evidence bundle: docs/_support/readme-first-contact/sample-output/
 ```
 
-That path gives you a concrete first win: SpecFact understands your project context and gives you a
-validated starting point instead of jumping straight into blind change work.
+⭐ **Star this repo if the output is useful.** Open an issue if you want the workflow adapted for your stack.
 
-### AI IDE Setup
+**Already installed the CLI?** Use:
 
 ```bash
-specfact init ide
-specfact init ide --ide cursor
-specfact init ide --ide vscode
+specfact init --profile solo-developer
+specfact code review run --path . --scope full
 ```
 
-`specfact init ide` discovers prompt resources from installed workflow modules and exports them to
-your IDE. If module prompt payloads are not installed yet, the CLI uses packaged fallback resources.
-
-## Choose Your Path
-
-### Greenfield and AI-assisted delivery
-
-Use SpecFact as the validation layer around fast-moving implementation work.
-
-Start with:
-- `specfact init --profile solo-developer`
-- `specfact code validate sidecar init <bundle> /path/to/repo`
-- `specfact code validate sidecar run <bundle> /path/to/repo`
-
-### Brownfield and reverse engineering
-
-Use SpecFact to understand an existing system before you change it, then hand that understanding
-into spec-first tools such as OpenSpec or Spec-Kit.
-
-Start with:
-- `specfact code import my-project --repo .`
-- `specfact project snapshot --bundle my-project`
-- `specfact code validate sidecar init my-project /path/to/repo`
-- `specfact code validate sidecar run my-project /path/to/repo`
-
-### Backlog to code alignment
-
-Use SpecFact when the problem is not only code quality, but drift between expectations and delivery.
-Backlog commands require a backlog-enabled profile or installed backlog bundle before the workflow
-commands are available.
-
-Start with:
-- `specfact init --profile backlog-team`
-- `specfact backlog ceremony standup ...`
-- `specfact backlog ceremony refinement ...`
-- `specfact backlog verify-readiness --bundle <bundle-name>`
-
-### Team and policy enforcement
-
-Use SpecFact when multiple developers and AI IDEs need consistent checks and review behavior.
-
-Start with:
-- `specfact backlog verify-readiness --bundle <bundle-name>`
-- `specfact govern ...`
-- CI validation flows that keep the same rules active outside local development
-
-## How do I get started if I want more?
-
-**Next steps**
-
-- **[Core CLI docs](docs/index.md)** for the core runtime, bootstrap, validation, and command topology
-- **[Reference: command topology](docs/reference/commands.md)** for grouped command surfaces
-- **[Canonical modules docs site](https://modules.specfact.io/)** for bundle-deep workflows
-
-## Documentation Topology
+The sample output comes from a pinned capture against `nold-ai/specfact-demo-repo`. Reproduce it with `docs/_support/readme-first-contact/capture-readme-output.sh`; capture metadata lives alongside the raw logs in `docs/_support/readme-first-contact/sample-output/`.
 
-`docs.specfact.io` is the canonical starting point for SpecFact.
-
-- Core CLI/runtime/platform documentation remains owned by `specfact-cli`.
-- Module-specific deep docs are canonically owned by `specfact-cli-modules`.
-- The live modules docs site is published at `https://modules.specfact.io/`.
-
-Use this repository's docs for the overall product story, runtime lifecycle, command topology,
-trust model, and getting-started flow. Use the modules docs site when you want deeper workflow,
-adapter, and module-authoring guidance.
+## What SpecFact does
 
-### Migration Note (Flat Commands Removed)
+- **Reviews AI-assisted changes deterministically** — compare code against contracts, clean-code rules, and policy gates
+- **Extracts structure from existing code** — reverse-engineer brownfield repos before you change them
+- **Blocks drift before merge** — use the same checks locally, in pre-commit, and in CI
+- **Links backlog intent to code reality** — connect backlog, specs, validation, and implementation
+- **Stays local-first** — no cloud account, no vendor lock-in, no built-in model dependency
 
-As of `0.40.0`, flat root commands are removed. Use grouped commands:
+## What is SpecFact?
 
-- `specfact validate ...` -> `specfact code validate ...`
-- `specfact plan ...` -> removed; use `specfact project devops-flow` or `specfact project snapshot`
-- `specfact policy ...` -> removed; use `specfact backlog verify-readiness`
+SpecFact is a local CLI for catching backlog/spec/code drift before it becomes expensive. It gives solo developers, legacy maintainers, and teams a validation layer around AI-assisted delivery, brownfield reverse engineering, and contract-first reviews.
 
-### Backlog Bridge (60 seconds)
+It exists because delivery drifts in predictable ways:
 
-SpecFact's USP is closing the drift gap between **backlog -> specs -> code**.
-These commands require the backlog bundle to be installed first, for example via
-`specfact init --profile backlog-team` or `specfact init --install backlog`.
+- AI-assisted code lands faster than validation catches up
+- brownfield systems rarely have trustworthy up-to-date specs
+- backlog intent gets reinterpreted before it reaches code
+- teams need the same review rules across IDEs, CI, and pull requests
 
-```bash
-# 1) Initialize backlog config + field mapping
-specfact backlog init-config --force
-specfact backlog map-fields --provider ado --ado-org <org> --ado-project "<project>"
+## Add SpecFact to your workflow
 
-# 2) Run ceremony workflows on real backlog scope
-specfact backlog ceremony standup ado --ado-org <org> --ado-project "<project>" --state any --assignee any --limit 5
-specfact backlog ceremony refinement ado --ado-org <org> --ado-project "<project>" --id <work-item-id> --preview
+**Pre-commit hook**
 
-# 3) Keep backlog + spec intent aligned (avoid silent drift)
-specfact backlog verify-readiness --bundle <bundle-name>
+```yaml
+- repo: https://github.com/nold-ai/specfact-cli
+  rev: v0.46.0
+  hooks:
+    - id: specfact-smart-checks
 ```
 
-Compatibility note: `specfact backlog daily ...` and `specfact backlog refine ...` still exist, but the preferred entrypoints are `backlog ceremony standup` and `backlog ceremony refinement`.
+**GitHub Actions**
 
-For GitHub, replace adapter/org/project with:
-`specfact backlog ceremony standup github --repo-owner <owner> --repo-name <repo> --state any --assignee any --limit 5`
-
-**AI IDE quick start**
-
-```bash
-# In your IDE chat (Cursor, VS Code, Copilot, etc.)
-/specfact.01-import my-project --repo .
+```yaml
+- name: SpecFact Gate
+  run: uvx specfact-cli@latest govern enforce stage --preset minimal
 ```
 
----
+## How SpecFact is built
 
-## Who It Is For
+SpecFact uses the same discipline it asks you to trust:
 
-- **Vibe coders and new builders** who want to ship fast with guardrails and confidence.
-- **Legacy professionals** who want AI speed without lowering standards.
-- **DevOps and engineering leaders** who need evidence and repeatable workflows.
+1. Outside-in research on the workflow or drift problem
+2. Public **OpenSpec** proposal and spec deltas
+3. TDD evidence before implementation
+4. Dogfooding with `specfact code review`
+5. Format, type-check, contract-test, and docs quality gates
+6. PR review with evidence artifacts
+7. Release through the same reproducible CLI paths
 
----
+## For teams and organizations
 
-## The Missing Link (Coder + DevOps Bridge)
+SpecFact still scales beyond the solo-developer entry path:
 
-Most tools help **either** coders **or** agile teams. SpecFact does both:
+- **Backlog + ceremony workflows** for GitHub, Azure DevOps, Jira, and Linear
+- **DoR/DoD and policy enforcement** for teams that need repeatable gates
+- **Evidence-backed PR review** with the same checks used locally
+- **CI/CD adoption path** that keeps validation deterministic instead of model-driven
 
-- **Backlog sync that is actually strong**: round-trip sync + refinement with GitHub, Azure DevOps, Jira, Linear.
-- **Ceremony support teams can run**: standup, refinement, sprint planning, flow metrics (Scrum/Kanban/SAFe).
-- **Policy + validation**: DoR/DoD/flow checks plus contract enforcement for production-grade stability.
+Start with:
 
-Recommended command entrypoints:
 - `specfact backlog ceremony standup ...`
 - `specfact backlog ceremony refinement ...`
 - `specfact backlog verify-readiness --bundle <bundle-name>`
-- `specfact backlog analyze-deps --bundle <bundle-name>`
-
-What the backlog readiness and ceremony commands do in practice:
-- Turns team agreements (DoR, DoD, flow checks) into executable checks against your real backlog data.
-- Shows exactly what is missing per item (for example missing acceptance criteria or definition of done).
-- Runs structured ceremony workflows directly from the CLI.
-
-Start with:
-- `specfact backlog ceremony standup --help`
-- `specfact backlog verify-readiness --bundle <bundle-name>`
-- `specfact backlog refine --help`
-
----
-
-## Core CLI Features
-
-The `specfact-cli` repository owns the platform-level features that every workflow bundle depends on:
-
-- `specfact init` for first-run bootstrap and IDE setup.
-- `specfact module` for install/list/show/search/enable/disable/uninstall/upgrade lifecycle flows.
-- `specfact upgrade` for CLI upgrades.
-- Runtime contracts, registry bootstrapping, trust checks, logging, and shared orchestration.
-- The grouped command surface that mounts installed bundle families under `project`, `backlog`, `code`, `spec`, and `govern`.
-
-## Official Modules Integration
-
-Official workflow behavior now ships from `nold-ai/specfact-cli-modules`.
-The core CLI discovers those bundle packages, mounts their command groups, and enforces compatibility, trust, and lifecycle rules.
+- `specfact govern ...`
 
-Installed official bundles expose the current grouped surfaces:
+## Module system
 
-- `specfact project ...`
-- `specfact backlog ...`
-- `specfact code ...`
-- `specfact spec ...`
-- `specfact govern ...`
+Official workflow behavior ships from `nold-ai/specfact-cli-modules`. The core CLI owns bootstrap, runtime contracts, trust checks, logging, and the grouped command surface. Installed modules add families such as `project`, `backlog`, `code`, `spec`, and `govern`.
